Affirmed pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: RFT Mgmt. Co. v. Tinsley & Adams LLP., 399 S.C. 322, 331-32, 732 S.E.2d 166, 171 (2012) ("When reviewing the trial court's ruling on a motion for a directed verdict or a JNOV, this [c]ourt must apply the same standard as the trial court by viewing the evidence and all reasonable inferences in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party."); id. at 332, 732 S.E.2d at 171 ("The trial court must deny a motion for a directed verdict or JNOV if the evidence yields more than one reasonable inference or its inference is in doubt."); id. ("Moreover, '[a] motion for JNOV may be granted only if no reasonable jury could have reached the challenged verdict.'" (alteration in original) (quoting Gastineau v. Murphy, 331 S.C. 565, 568, 503 S.E.2d 712, 713 (1998))); id. ("An appellate court will reverse the trial court's ruling only if no evidence supports the ruling below."); id. ("In deciding such motions, neither the trial court nor the appellate court has the authority to decide credibility issues or to resolve conflicts in the testimony or the evidence.").

AFFIRMED.

We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.

LOCKEMY, C.J., and WILLIAMS and MCDONALD, JJ., concur.
